Chapter 1103: I want to buy a war flying boat
Lin Ze has seen a lot of examples like this in the history of the earth.
Just like in the Northern Song Dynasty of China, when the Song Dynasty was just established, the combat effectiveness of the army was actually good, and it was still able to fight against foreign enemies, but after the appearance of the affinity and the Sui Gong, every time the army of the Song Dynasty faced the enemy, the result of the battle was defeat, and in the end they couldn't even keep their own Kyoto, and the children of the two emperors and the royal family were captured by the enemy.
The reason for this is actually very simple, that is, the result of the Song Dynasty's constant concessions to the outside world.
The first time he used affinity and Sui tribute to make the enemy retreat, and the second time the enemy came back, the Song Dynasty already had such an inertial thinking in their hearts, that is, they could use affinity money to make the enemy retreat.
In this way, one after another, the relatives and the tribute were paid again and again, and finally the enemy's appetite was getting bigger and bigger, and it was becoming more and more difficult to satisfy.
In fact, things turned out like this, the emperor of the Song Dynasty and his ministers knew that it was becoming more and more dangerous to do so, but the inertial thinking in their hearts imprisoned them, so that they could not break free from this shackle at all, so in the end, it was inevitable that Jingkang's shame appeared.
The most heart-wrenching thing is that the reason for the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty did not attract the attention of the Southern Song Dynasty emperor, or simply said that he was also imprisoned by this habitual thinking, so after the establishment of the Southern Song Dynasty, his army was still the same, and the way he dealt with the enemy was also the same.
As a result, there was such a wail as Yashan!
In addition to the Song Dynasty, the same is true of our Qing Dynasty, which has been contracted again and again, and betrayed the country again and again, which finally made Huaxia have a century-old shame.
You retreat step by step, not for safety, but for humiliation and death.
Concession cannot be exchanged for safety, only strong targeting can get the respect and dignity it deserves!
The Song Dynasty and my Qing Dynasty, as long as we could stand up at that time, directly say no to foreign enemies, and use the money to curry favor with foreign enemies to strengthen the army, then our current China will still be the master of the world, instead of letting a country composed of all gangsters, criminals, and unemployed people that has only been established for less than three hundred years dominate the world.
Obviously, the upper echelons of the Shenzhou Continent were well aware of this, so when facing the powerful beast tide, they did not retreat at all, but chose to fight to the end.
The result is also obvious, these people made the right decision.
100,000 years ago, the footprints of human beings were still tens of thousands of miles away from the 100,000 Great Mountains, but now the footprints of human beings have entered the 100,000 Great Mountains, and human beings have now become the people of the Shenzhou Continent.
"Now that the Black Iron Feather Eagle has appeared here, does it mean that the beast tide is really coming?" Lin Ze asked worriedly.
"It should be, the Black Iron Feather Eagle was obviously driven here, that's why we will meet them, the brute beast is the most sensitive to the burst of the aura tide, so, I think the beast tide should appear soon, as for the time, it will definitely be within a year. Huang Yu replied in the affirmative.
Huang Yu's status in the Taiyi Sect is not low, and he can see some confidential documents, so he is very clear about the signs of the appearance of the beast tide.
"It seems that after this mission, I have to rush back to the Great Qin Empire as soon as possible, otherwise, I will really be trapped here. Lin Ze said.
It's just that in his heart, what he wants is to directly contact those who have been planted by him as puppets in Huangsha Town and Heisha City, so that they can speed up the corresponding construction.
In particular, the defense of Huangsha Town should be built up at a faster pace.
Compared with Heisha City, the city wall of Huangsha Town is still much lower, and there are still a large number of homeless people around Huangsha Town, and the small Huangsha Town cannot accommodate so many homeless people, so from now on, it is necessary to speed up the construction of new towns, so that when facing the beast tide in the future, there will be a city to resist.
"Well, in this way, in terms of food and combat materials, I also have to prepare as soon as possible!" Thinking of this, Lin Ze gave another order in his mind to collect food and war materials.
As for informing the city lord of Linsha City that these beast tides are coming, this one is not busy at first.
One is that God knows if the people in Linsha City will directly collapse after knowing that the beast tide is coming, such as fleeing directly from Linsha City, or secretly spreading rumors, causing a big turmoil in Linsha City, in order to find some trouble for Lin Ze or something.
Also, that is, the first attack point of the beast tide is Huangsha Town, as long as Huangsha Town is not captured by the beast tide, then Linsha City behind it is still safe. In this case, there is no need to notify Linsha City of this matter at all.
Oh, you said that this would not make Linsha City lose the best opportunity to prepare for the battle.
Hehe, seriously, Lin Ze really looked down on those armies in Linsha City.
Using the army of Linsha City to fight against the beast tide, in Lin Ze's mind, it was a question of whether he could hold out for three days, so whether he was notified of the beast tide in Linsha City or not, in fact, there was no difference at all.
Relatively speaking, it is better not to be notified.
At the very least, the prices that have finally stabilized in Linsha City will not fluctuate drastically, which also gives Lin Ze time to prepare.
Once the beast tide really happens in the future, and when there is a high price rise in Linsha City, Lin Ze, who is best prepared, will soon be able to stabilize the prices in Linsha City.
And as long as the prices in Linsha City are stabilized, the prices of the entire sandbar will also be stabilized, and then the hearts of the people in the sandbar will also be stabilized, which will be extremely beneficial to Lin Ze's defense against the attack of the beast tide in the future.
What, you said that when the beast tide broke out, Lin Ze directly used a decapitation tactic to try to nip the beast tide in the bud.
Hehe, seriously, you really look up to Lin Ze too much when you think like this.
Lin Ze's strength is very strong, but compared to the strength of the beast tide, it is really far behind.
Once the aura tide erupts, the brute beasts existing in the 100,000 mountains are at least innate sixth-level brute beasts, and the number is not only ten, twenty, but directly thousands, tens of thousands, in addition, the number of more powerful brute beasts and demon beasts will not be small, so how can you let Lin Ze implement the decapitation tactic?!
With Lin Ze's current strength, it is already the best to be able to keep Huangsha Town, Black Sand City, and Windwind City safe under the attack of the beast tide.
As for the rest, it is better to wait for Lin Ze to protect these places before thinking about others.
"In this case, it would be better for me to take advantage of this time to get one or several war ships, which will be more conducive to my return trip between Huangsha Town and Black Sand City. Lin Ze thought in his heart.
"Brother Huang, if I want to buy a war weapon like a war flying boat, I don't know where I need to buy it?" Lin Ze was not polite, and directly wrote Huang Yu on the side.
"Do you want to buy a war flying boat?" Huang Yu said as he looked at Lin Ze with a surprised face.
"Well, yes, I want to buy it!" Lin Ze said with certainty.
Seeing the serious look on Lin Ze's face, Huang Yu knew that he wasn't talking and playing.
"Alas, I was guessing before that Brother Lin's identity in the Great Qin Empire is definitely not ordinary, maybe it is the descendant of the head of a certain great sect, Senior Qu is by your side Brother Lin, how do you look like a bodyguard more than Uncle Shi, now it seems that my idea is correct. Huang Yu looked at Lin Ze and said.
"Brother Huang, I'm sorry, I ........ for some reasons before"
"It's okay, I understand, if you want someone like you to come out, low-key is the biggest guarantee, Brother Lin, if you can say this, I'm satisfied, and I don't need to apologize!" Huang Yu said with an understanding face.
"Brother Lin, although your identity is not simple, it is still very difficult to buy a war flying boat, especially now that there is a sign of a beast tide, at this time, there will not be many people selling a war weapon like a war flying boat. After all, with a war ship in hand, that's a back road.
Once you can't resist the attack of the beast tide, then this war ship can at least ensure that some of them leave safely, so, Brother Lin, if you want to buy a war ship now, the success rate is almost zero. Huang Yu said directly.
"Yes, the current situation is indeed that it is difficult to buy a war flying boat, alas........" Lin Ze sighed, very disappointed in his heart.
In wartime, the prices of all materials will rise rapidly, and some strategic materials are even more valuable.
The best example of this is the military supplies of the interwar period.
For example, warships and airplanes, in normal times, you can still find ways to buy some, but once you enter the war period, you want to buy these things again, and the difficulty directly increases dozens of times.
During World War II, Britain directly paid 22 islands in order to get 50 destroyers from the United States, and these destroyers were still old destroyers that were about to be eliminated during World War I.
Such a thing, in the pre-war period, would never have happened.
Before the war, not to mention the fifty destroyers of the First World War that were eliminated, even if it was a brand new destroyer, it was impossible to exchange fifty for several of the islands.
As the hegemon of the world at that time, he would never sell his territory for the sake of dozens of destroyers, which was equivalent to announcing to outsiders how weak they were.
If something like this happens, it will be announcing to the world that they have fallen from the top of the hegemony.
Eventually, however, during World War II, such a thing happened.
As a result, at the end of World War II, no, it should be said that after receiving military material assistance from the United States, the United Kingdom fell from the position of the world hegemon, and in the end, the United States directly replaced it.
Now more than 60 years have passed since World War II, and the hegemon of the world is still the United States!
